David John Nelson Chester

February 19, 1962 – January 12, 2025

January 12, 2025, I lost my Brother 😢. What will I do, where can I call for advice, a good laugh, a vicious fight or a ride to a medical appointment?

David was predeceased by his Father in 83 and his Mother in 84. He leaves behind his sister Darcey (Brian), his niece Chantal (Jayson) and cousins in Winnipeg, Edmonton, Vancouver and Toronto and numerous lifelong friends, from school and work.

I am hearing good words from his co-workers and friends. He was dedicated to his work life to SUPERSTORE since 1984 and to CANADA LIFE, working for various food service vendors, for almost 30+ years.

Chantal and Jayson have taken in his cat Tat and she is slowly adapting to the new environment. Still waiting to see how Walter accepts her.

I’m still trying to accept this horrible situation and what changes will happen with him now gone. The tears are flowing, the grief is getting heavy, and the concrete shoes are firmly encased around my feet. This will be a blur by next year.

At this time, there are no plans for a ceremony. A private graveside burial will follow in the spring.

Flowers are gratefully declined, but should you wish to make a donation in his memory please donate to the Manitoba Heart and Stroke Foundation or the Winnipeg Humane Society.

This song is for you, my brother!!!! ❤️❤️
